So I was experimenting with another recipe from The America's Test Kitchen Family Baking Book. It ended up tasty enough that I was asked for the recipe. These brownies ended up fudgy in the middle with a kind of crunchy shell on top. I ended up with this:

Adjust oven rack to higher middle position and preheat to 350F. Line a 9x9" baking pan with foil and grease it - leave enough foil on the edges so that you can use it to lift the brownies out later. I used olive oil, but you can use butter or any other type of oil you like.

I had some extra green onion, so I'm not really sure how many stalks it was. Sorry about that. In any case, I also had some mozzarella cheese and a hankering for dinner rolls.
